Hi, there has been a change from pdftex as in teTeX-2.0.2 to pdftex-1.11b.tar.gz, in that in mapfile.c there is now: if (strcmp(buf, nontfm) == 0) fm_ptr->tfm_name = xstrdup(nontfm); which was still in teTeX-2.0.2: if (strcmp(buf, nontfm) == 0) fm_ptr->tfm_name = nontfm; As a consequence, in function lookup_fontmap(), it seems that now the comparison if (p->tfm_name == nontfm) p->tfm_num = newnullfont(); will never succeed (and there are a few more places), as xstrdup(nontfm) returns a pointer _not_ pointing to the constant "<nontfm>" string. So there seems to be something probably wrong; which has no influence at all as long as nobody uses the undocumented (?) "<nontfm>" TFM entry in mapfiles. Has anybody used this obscure <nontfm>, and what is it good for? Regards, Hartmut
